Thermolite
Thermolite EPS is an insulation with a minimal thermal resistance of R-4.05 per inch of thickness. THERMOLITE conforms to National Building Code standards and can be used for interior or exterior walls, foundations and also under concrete floors.
Its low price, versatility and cost/R-value ratio make Thermolite an outstanding insulation option with permanent thermal resistance, since its performance does not diminish over time. Thermolite is ecological, as it contains no CFCs or HCFCs and is 100% recyclable.
